The Lord of Questions, God of Magic
As god of magic, Magnara the Lord of Questions is the most pompous of all the gods and this is identified in his priests and worshippers who are primarily bards, wizards, shamans and a few monks. The Lord of Questions is a neutral deity.
As god of magic he controls all aspects of the functioning of spells from the divine to the arcane. Despite the fact that all gods are able to give their priests spells to cast in their name, Magnara has control over if the function and if they finction properly. Those that have angered Magnara may find themselves unable to cast their spells, whether they are divine or arcane.
Dogma
Magic is not evil. Love it for what it is. Use it for what is was meant to do. Do not use your art with wanton abandonment. Temper power with wisdom and reason. Do not hoard to yourself the knowledge of new creations. Make copies of your discoveries and spread them among the churches of magic. Teach the wielding of magic through its proper use. Let no living creature be undirected in the use of magic.
Tenets
The Laws of Magnara ARE the laws of magic. Each of these laws have been created to further the pursuit of knowledge and to further the knowledge that magic is a gift of the gods and is to be treated with respect. Those who do not obey these laws are likely to find their connection to the Great Flow cut and unattainable.
